The American School of the Hague PTO is a non-profit, parent-led, volunteer organization, serving the parents, students, families, and teachers of ASH. The PTO is entirely self-funded and serves in three main ways: hosting Flagship Events, facilitating Community Engagement, and Giving Back the school. The overall goal of the PTO is to enhance the #ASHexperience for students and their families.
All ASH parents are automatically part of the PTO, no separate membership is needed. There are volunteer opportunities to suit everyone's talents and schedule. For more information and how to join us, visit our PTO web page.
